[SOLVED]Dwm problem after a big update

I have installed dwm 5.7.2 and i want to add this patch: http://dwm.suckless.org/patches/pertag

When i applied the patch i get the following error:

alucard@hell ~/.config/dwm/src/dwm-5.7.2 $ patch p1 < /home/alucard/.config/dwm/dwm-5.7.2-pertag.diff 
patching file p1
Hunk #1 FAILED at 120.

Hunk #3 FAILED at 1450.
Hunk #4 FAILED at 1468.

Hunk #6 FAILED at 1620.
Hunk #7 FAILED at 1640.
Hunk #8 FAILED at 1912.

Re: [SOLVED]Dwm problem after a big update

What other patches have you applied? Pertag doesn't play nicely with other layout patches...

Re: [SOLVED]Dwm problem after a big update

If the output you pasted isn't a typo, then you are using the patch command incorrectly.  You forgot the "-" before the "p1", as in:

patch -p1 < /home/...

Thats why it says "patching file p1 failed".
